2 Minute Beach Clean

Yesterday my colleague Fay and I used the
@2minutebeachclean to raise awareness of keeping our beaches clean and the
benefits to the environment and ecosystems.

Our organisation Discover2empower is very
new and we work with unemployed veterans and the wider community to reduce
isolation, build confidence and self belief and motivation towards employment.
The beach clean is such a great way to show people how making a small change in
their lives can have a huge impact. Every course we run uses the great outdoors
as much as possible for education and empowerment and for some it's the first
time in a long time that someone has taken the time or effort to help them
access this amazing environment we live in. Sadly this pile of rubbish
(excluding coke cans) was found in the high tide seaweed on Wembury Beach in
Devon. At least we made a little difference. To find out more our website
discover2empower.com can be see in a work in progress here.
